'Chelsea are going to be losing Willian & Pedro' - next two transfer windows key for Lampard, says Hoddle

The former Blues player and manager feels progress can be made as long as suitable cover is found for departing stars

Chelsea are capable of challenging for the Premier League inside the next two years, says Glenn Hoddle, but only if they get their recruitment right as Pedro and Willian appear destined to leave.

Two experienced forwards are approaching the end of their respective contracts at Stamford Bridge.

Both have been linked with La Liga giants Barcelona, with it possible that Brazil international Willian could be on the move before Friday’s transfer deadline.
